The lips were white with passion rather than feacr1 and the lady stood belure te like a lioness at bay. Even Wen I could not help but note the splendid beauty of this grand lady. Tall and slender, eyes blaok and flah ing-tlnct lurid now-the spectacle she presented, standing there in the middle of the tipartinent, was more the appearance of a queen than a hunted cri inal. "I must," I replied. "1 do not doubt your innocece. L'oking into your face, it is strange that any ote could couple it with guilt ; but I am constrained to do my duty, madame, however inimioal it may be to my feel "Will you allow me to change ty dress? " she said in a tone almiost pleasant. The hard lines around the mouth had relaxed, and the passionate glow on the face gave way to a pleas ant smile. "Certainly ; I will wait for you here." "I wish also to send a messenger for a friend ; will you permit him to pas ?") "Certainly." This was myffirst intervit.w with Eigenia Cornille. I had seen her for months, the lendern of our gayest and most fashionable society. In her splendid mansion sie dispensed the ,most pcrofuse and elegant hospitality. A Spanish lady-a widow she had represented herself-and had been a resident here almnost a year. No one ever suspected her of being aught thtan what she seemied, until one day I was ordered to arrest her as a nmur. -deress. It was now alleged, said Mr. F., that this young beauty was no other than tie woman who~ had poisoned her husband in IHavana, and fled with all his wealth. An immense reward was ired for her apprehension, and the eircumstances that had come to our knowledge pointed her ouit beyond all doubt as the person we were in search of. Yret the person who recognized her tihe evening before at the th eatre advised us to bc-careful lest she should escape us. I laughed at the idea. Mr. I and myself were surely suffi cient to arrest a lady. We were old enough in the ways of cunning to de feat any such attempt. WVhen the lady left me I stepped to the window, andi~ saidi to Mr. I., who was waiting at the doer : "The lady desires to send a mes Sger to a faiend-siuffeur him to ss." Almnost at the Banme intant the door of the apaitment the lady had enee oipenedl, and a youth apparent ly a miulatto boy-eaine out and pass ed hurriedly through the roora into the htall, and fr'otu thentee into the street. It was, tio doubt, the nmessen ger, I thought, and I pioked up a book and commenoed reading. Niearly an hour passed, and still the lady did niot make her appearance, nor did the boy return. The filend she had sent for must live at sorne distance, I .thought, or the lady is unusually eare. ful about her toilet ; and so auiother hour wont by. At hast <lt'e impa. tient, and knocked at t't4oog., "Madame, I can wait no longerY There was no reply. I knooked re peatedly, and at last determnined to J force aln entrance. Strange fe'ars ham1 rassed me, I began to suspeet, I knew not what. It took but a lmomenOt-to drive int the door, and, once in the The robes of the lady lay upon the the floor, and scattered over the room were suits of boys' wearing apparel, similar to that worn by the mulatto boy. On tho table was a cosmotio that would stain the -kin to a light delicate brown. I was foiled by a surety ; the lady had escaped in the disguise of a tmes seuger. I should have dotected te ruse, I felt humiliated and determined to redrass my ciror. I kne,v sho I we rid not remain the city an instant I longer than she could got away. I hurried to banker's, but found that she had drawn the amount duo her an hour before. "Who presented the check ?" I asked of the leirk. ".A mulatto boy. It was made payable to bearer." There was yet a chance. The French steamer left within an hour, it was possible she would seek that means of escape. I jumped into a cab and arrived there ten minutes before she left the wharf--j tt in tine to see an aged decrepit gentle man into the cabin. There were few oassengers ; none of them answered Lte description of the person I sought. [ stood on the wharf watching the re ceding vessel until it disappeared. I was in the act of turning away when a hackman app;oaehed with the re inirk : "Mr. F.. did you see that old man on board ? lie had long, white beard, and hair that fell on his shoulders." "Well, there's something curious about hit." 11W hy ?' "Why, sir, when he got into the cart i ige he was a mulatto boy, and when he got out he was an old man." I will not repent the expression I used then-it was neither refined nor polite-for I knew the vessel would be far out at sea before she could be overtaken. I was foiled by a woman. Nor could I help r<-j ining, now that the chase was over, that she had es caped. Innocent or guilty, there wasa charm about her none could resist. 'he spell of her wondrous beauty affected all who approached her. It lingers in my memory yet; and I could not have the stain of her blood upon my conscience. how A CAInrT-naG POsTMASTER RESENTS AN AFrmror.--The follow.' rng article appeatred in the Savannalh News of 'Tuesday, and will .show what measures at carpet-bagger takes to re venge an attack nmado on his official umisconduct by a newspaper: Our article of S iturday complain ing of the gross neglect and stupidity of the carpet baggers in charge of the Savannah PoatlTie, seems to have terribly stirred up the buzzard roost under the Custom 11use. Last evening, when our colored mailman applied at the office for our exchanges by the Western mail, "Old I Junk" Teely, who is chief of the es Itablishment in the uboence of the boody, who, for the past has been re creating at the North, informed him him that lie would deliver no mo')re mails to the Morning News until he stopped lying about him. On receiv ing this mnessage, one of our counting room eirks went to the P~ostoffioe to enquire the cause of the non-delivery of our papers, when Seely reiterated his refusal to deliver over the exchang es of the Mforning Slwr. Tihus it will be seen that thtis mis erable creature, who has been thrust into a position that lie is utterly unfit to fill, as a Radical scourge upon the com munity, has had the audacity to use the publie office which he disgraces to resent his personal affronts. In our notice of the. irregular and uinsatisfactory manner in which the ges'al service is administered in the 'avannah postoiffce, we uttered noth ing but truths which we can prove. If our remarks were not very compli-' mentary to the miserable noodle who,] under Radical dispensation, fills the position of deputy, still be has no legal or moral right to deprive usi of the use of our mails. Theli attempt, thus to prostitute the postal service to partisan or personal eiids, Is- an out rago which would not be tolerated by the most despotic Government in en~ istanco, and will not, we' feel confi dent, be sanctioned by the Postmaster-' Gleneral,. We shall-testt this:; thatter and shall ondeavor to convinee the miserable specimen of galvanized hu manity who assumes to prostitute the Governmient service to gratify his pee. sonal resentments that he hs over. stepedthebounds of prudence.

The Death Bad of a Lion. Every one may not be soientifio ; but every one may at least be a close observer of nature animated and na ture inanimate. If plain people with good eyes and open hearts would but keep a note-book for their original observations, and jot down in few words the simple facts of life among God's lower creatures, the great men of the d'ay would alwmays have a good store tf tle material to deal with. The philosopher would stand at ease on the grand ple.tforn of truth, and build with stones ready hewn to his hand, instead of having to send his thoughts wide over the land in search of straw wherewith to make brick for the house of his wisdom, or perhaps, to gather oisers for the wattled wig warm of a nomadic theory. "Do animals understand what death is? Da the recognize its coming signs?'' asked the uninitiated. "No," says a gifted philosopher of our ac quaintance, "you never see animals apprehending the meaning of death," Very well ; ticn here ii a fact. The writer once strayed into a menagerie in the north of England, which had camped for a day or two in a little mountain metropolis. A large elderly lion was making an in voluntary tour of the country in com. peny with his wife and a fine family of young people. What an insult to put the desert monarch into such a vulgar clap-trap traveling carriage as this! The name caravan may sound fine enough out on the pathless sands; but here it is a thing of creaking boards, groaning wheels, and rod and yellow paint. No group of palm trees here; }et the caravan stops, and the camp is pitched in the form of a hollow square, amid such desert talk, loud roars of satisfaction, growling coinnent, or shrill protest. One does not know what it all means-foreign tongues all of them. But one may guess at the subjects under remark; for great lumbering bones are sorely aching with jolting over rough roads; long limbs arc tired of being cramped in narrow cells; soft sides are bruised with humping over the stones of civ ilized travel; the Bajezets of the wilderness are chafing within their bars; strength and ferooity are fer menting for want of space; and the dinner hour has long ago passed away without a dinner. Ti ue, there are strong signs of supper in one of the carriages, whose little pipe of a chim ney has heeu smoking all day, but which is fierce now. There is an ag gravatog allatus of frying bacon per vuding the place ; and women in jaok. ets, short flauncod dresses, and laced leather boots, are clattering among tea cups; while bold children with uncombed hair are talking low tra. velod wit to the gaping boys and girls who surround the stop-ladder which acts as stair caso to a lofty door. A platform is now thrown out from the front of the square ; prodi gious portraits of impossible monsters are unrolled and affixed ; and, as if stimulated by unheard of dangers with which they theaten society, crowds are daring enough to mount the steps. We slip with a vague feel ing of awe behind the arras, and. look around. An elephant with a hill of d un-colore d forehead, and with legs like pillars of Hercules, is swaying his significant trunk this way and that, ever a stockade of bare. 13ut what Is the miatter with that grand old lion ? lie is in pain ; surely he is in pain. His breathing is short, and is drawn with effort ; nostrils are spread wide, lips drawn back, and that great shag gy chest heaves uneasily. He ia suf fering from bronchitis, for be evident ly cannot bear the keen air of the North.- Ho is couchanat, but now he lifts his bead 'high, aind looks round and round the show into the hundred faces of that unfeeling crowd, as if searching for -sympathy. But'ilo; they cannot read his eye of mute ap' pool; bue is nothing to them but a great tawny lion with, shaggy .mwane and tufted tail. Suddenly he rears himself up to his full statue, throws hack his grand head, titters a trernen' dons desert rear, and falls down heavi. ly on his side-dead.

We have published sevetal state. ments from various Nee York papers in reference to the conoversy as to the complicity ofo entain of the offi cials of the Administration with the late "sold ring" and movement. The New York World contaias the follow ing summary of the controversy: "If Mr. Jay Gould has made false statements, it is possible 1p prove them false. Until such proof Is furnished the recent gold speontation must seem to the public to.. be brought scandalously naar the doors of the President. The evidened of his com plicity is not conclusive, bdt unless Mr. Gould's credibility can be shaken and destroyed, the Presidept must stand before the country in a most unfavor. ble light.

That Grant advanced to Cor. bin $10,000 or 12,000, to be used as a margin in a speculation in bonds, and that Corbin's brokers purchased $800, 000 worth of bonds, to be carried with this margin on account of the President. "4. That Sir. Gould had a personal interview with the President in the summer, at Corbin's house, in which the President told Gould that no gold would be sold before the let of November, beyond the regular monthly $2,000,000, and-that this in formation was the basis of the specu lation. "5. That Mrs. Grant was in the speculation ; $500,000 of gold having been purchased on her account at 182 which was sold when the price had risen to 137, and the profit, amounting to $25,000, was remitted to her. "6. That when Secretary Boutwell decided to sell gold and break down the speculatios, the. President gave a permptory order to Boutwell forbid. ding the.sale,.and that order was:glv en at tlse instigation of Corbin. "7. Thait the gioal order for the sale of gold was not given until after Corbin had represented to the Presi' dent that he was out of the specula, tion.". The New York. . Exprens says: "If Mr. Gould is not-romanoing, he tell. a story concerning the- recent gold spoculations in \V all street which, to say the least of It, is singularly mnoon sistent with the President's recent letter to Mr. Bonner.

At a time when, over the whole breadth of the South, there is a mania for ne railroads, and where, in many era no wataings from dearly bough i pevlace seerm to be heeded; the foll lowing remarks are worthy- of the thonghtful attention of legislators and the puhlic generally. There are projected roads in one own State, which, if built, must certainly lee uarenIeertlee when builr, and in a'rnggling for business will damage ex isting propertios forced by stern necessi ty to retain their freights by low rates, with thti very marked disadvantage that t..e old roads are owned by private stgekholders, who not' only suf.r for their ghblic spirit and enferprise in fur nishing the public with facilities of transportation, but .through the means of the tax gather, are actually compell 44 to contribute money to measures which destroy their own investments. Judge King, President of the West Point and Atlanta Road, remarks in his annual report :-"The uncertainty of all rail road investments is much in creased by the growing policy of 'State aid,' in neighboring States as well as in our own. No railroad built with the qapital of the shareholders, to .ata fy the real wants of the couals/, can be long secure againet a rivalry and competition tnder the patronage of the State. No policy can be uore unjust and oppres sive than the policy of 'State ai,.l" It. is a, distinguishing feature of this policy, that the 4itizen who has built his oion enterplise, with his own means, is taxed to build up rival enterprises, by which his own may be ruined. In other worsis, he is forced to contribute money flir the destruction of his own property I The effects of this-policy are no longer left to theory. Proof is abundant, that roads will be built with little regard to the wants of the public, if men are- al lowed to organize and build them at the public expense.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commericial writes as follows from San Francisco: The problem which every housewife in-the world has been watching with interest from the beginning of time is going to be solved, so far as this country is concerned, by the Chinaman. In th'e capacity of house servants lie has not, according to the universal opinion here among housekeepers, a serious fault or any disagreeable habit from which it is not possible to break him in a very short time. They are very tidy ; they like steady etmployment.- uniform ways, and ask few priviliges; they are honest, fr. gal, careful And industrious, and t-ke great pride in the excellence of their work, whether in cooking or in chani ber work, or as body servants, or as general waiter., or bell boys. They do all classes of work that the American servant girl dio.s. Many of them in the State are e mpioyed as child nurses anid seamstresses. A lady with whom .1 conversed here the wife of a banker and a very ptomi nent gentleman, says she las bad many year.' experience with the Chinese asa hottee servants, and that eastern people catn form no idea of the cleanliness of OI,iname% nd their general excellence.

A correspondent at Berlin, Prussia, writes to a Chicago paper as follows : I do not think I In any way exagger ate when I state that Berlin has at least 3,000 public gardens, in addition to which nearly every manufactory and private house has also its own little gar den spots, tastefully arranged with al. coves, bowers, and places of retirement atd rest, full of the most beautiful roses and other choice fiowers, filling the it with perfume, and making the hearl glad by its surroundings. ,The publi gardens are laid out in the most tasteful manner, and in the evening when lit up by the various colored gas lights, the reflection of these lights upon the per. eons reminds one of such fairy scenes at we witness in the "Black Crook" and "White Fawn." One of these gardens, and perhaps the most magnificent one, is Kroll ', and beyond any description I am able to give on paper. The- space it covert is about 20 acres, laid out in a most tasteful manner, with beautiful wide walks, shade.l by oranee trees and rare exotic., adjoining bed.; of native flow, era, in which are placed wondrous foun. t.ins and finely executed statuary. Ii the evening this immense garden is illu ininated by thousands of gas lights, with various colored globes and prisms, reflecting the colors of the rainbow, making night more brilliant than day, Attached to this garden is a large thea. tre. in which, every afternoon, some fine opera is given. That over, the entire band of about 80 performers pro ceed to the garden, and there give r wonderfully fine concert, which laitt from 8 to 10 o'clock in the evening, while the visitors, who generally num, from 0 000 to 8,000, seat themselves around the tables with their families and friends, to listen to this enchantii music and take their evening. meal. Here you find families the most respec table of the city ; and in this vast as, sembly not one word or act do you heat or see in any way improper; and when you witness such scenes, yon cannot heel but feel that the people here realy know how to, and do, enjoy life much bettor than we in America; and, when asked by my German friend, if we had such ear. ri-t)t and. sttneemnenia, T felt sad it think that they do' not exist amraongi it. TuRE HARVEST IN EunorE.--Bi mail from Europe we hav the follow in resume of the harvest prospects pre .atling at the great food supply centres, on the 1st of Octob 'r, as reported it Paris: The accounts of the harvest in Ger many are very unequal, varying in dif forent districts from good to far below average yield. On the whole the grair harvest of middle Germany was below the average; that of the Southerr States was far better. Prom Austria we hear that the yield of corn is con, siderably smaller than in the last tw< years ; the same is true of Roumania. The Russian harvest is stated to hav< been good, and the crops have nowher< failed so completely as in some place last year. The fodder is everywhere poor, with the exception of a few moan tainous districts. There has been very little clover, and both the hay and str, rogate have been mnuch injured by the untavorable weather. On the othei hand, there has been a good deal o straw. Both poratoos and beets havt suffered fro he heat and drought c1 July and the rain of Ang~nsI. The dis ease has also appeared with more or lesa virulence in some parts. The hopet entertamned for the potato harvest ar< not, therefore, high : btut is said that th< beet is improviing. The hops are said to be in a very poot conditIon, psrtly or account of the weather and partly fron the insects and the disease, which ha appeared ini many gardens. Scarcely q'uarter of the usual yield is expect'ed B3ut little fruit has been gathered, and even what was is poor-incquality. Thi is particularly the case with the appea and plums. N~or will 1869 be number. ed among the select vintages, as tht quantity of grapes is small and theli quality inferior.

The subjugatiois of Cuba cannot be achieved by soldiers, nor will it re sult from a series of victories. Troops may hold the seaports, but. the inland regions will be against them. Armed columns may traverse the islands. but can n-whore establish a permuent footing. With the exception of a few traders, Spain has in friends in the island. Prim and S.rrano have often told the Cortes that the loss of Cuba is merely a question of time. For four months they have been devising the most advantageous terms. It is to be hoped that wisdom and consistency will enai'e them to see that it is good to be rid of the island on any terms, and cause them to consider before a ast ing men r nd money which they cannot spare in the furtherance of any enter. prise which will never yield a hundredth part of what it has already irreparably cost. Tuit: A t RADICAL. PARTY or Souns CAROLINA. -The platform of the party is broad and strong. Southern recon structiun and negro suffrage ar recog nized as accomplished facts, and is not proposed to interfere with any right which the colored men now have. Hero at once is off'erad to the colotetd voter all that his Radical friends can give ; and the Anti-Radical party promise, besides, an honest and economt. cal government, which she)) enable trade and business to flourish, and mako the laboring classes prosperous and hap. py. Upon this platform the Anti Radi cals of Abbeville,.Sumter. Kershaw and }3.org.,town can rally to th--ir support h"andtre.ds of colored voters, anl can eleat men who will represent all classes of the community and strive to retrieve the State from the burdens which press so heavily upon her. There may be found some men who wi)) not consent to work with the large majority of our people upon the Anti Radical platform; but public opinion in its favor grows daily more atrong, and will increase in volume until the strong. holds of Radicalism have all been swept away. A common sense submission to the inevitable necessities of the situa tion is the only course which will save the State from ruin. And the work should begin without an hour's delay. Cha- leston News. JUnzis.-It is said that the Hon. Edward Thistleton, an English gentle man, has discovered beyond donbt the real author of the famous letters of Ju nius. Mr. Thistleton called to his as sistance Mr. Charles Cabot, an expert in hand-writing, and expects to prove in contestibly that the letters of Junius to is pbliher Mr. Woodfall, were writ *.en by Mr. George Grenville, the reput ed author of the American Stamp act. Fac aimnilee of t he acknowledged let ters of Mr. Grenville, and of the letters of IJunius, will shortly be made publi.
